Zapier review

Zapier ranks first because it combines the largest app catalog on this list with the shortest path from idea to running workflow. Its pricing page lists 9,000+ apps, and Zapier Copilot can draft a Zap from a sentence. AI is no longer a separate product: AI steps, code and SDK calls now use the same task-based pricing as any other action, which makes cost easier to forecast. Every plan includes Zap workflows, Tables and Forms, and the free tier allows 100 tasks a month with two-step Zaps. Professional starts at $19.99 a month and adds multi-step Zaps, premium apps, webhooks and AI fields. Zapier MCP and the SDK let AI assistants and coding agents call your connected apps. The trade-off is cost at scale, since each action is a task, and there is no self-hosted edition for teams that need data to stay in-house.
